Check your owner's manual ... should be in there.

It must be easier posting a note and have someone reply than to read the manual.

The mantra of the dudes who are too lazy to open an Owner's Manual.

"Owner's Manual? ... we don't need no stinking Owner's Manual!"

Besides, if someone gave you the wrong info on the 'net, then what? Yeah, the torque on the lug nuts is 200 ft-lbs ... snap !!

What is sad is being criticized for posting a question. I did not have the manual with me at the time. Unlike some of you I do not sleep with it.
